Visiting Anse Volbert Beach

The British and French once fought hard for control of the Seychelles. Once you arrive, the reason is clear. The islands of this archipelago are spectacular and well worth the trip. Among the landscapes to explore is Praslin Island and its Anse Volbert Beach. This beach is a prime excursion spot for vacationers. It is easy to reach and features shallow water, which makes outings with children much simpler. The translucent water and fine sand are enough to convince any traveler to drop their bags and stay. A major advantage is that this beach area has the infrastructure needed for both short and long stays. You will find hotels for every budget at Anse Volbert, along with a very large choice of restaurants serving both local and international cuisine. A wide range of water activities is also available.

Beach life

After Beau Vallon on Mahé Island, Anse Volbert Beach is the most popular area in the Seychelles for visitors. The many available activities draw a crowd, meaning this beach is not exactly secluded. Those seeking peace of mind can rest easy, however. Beaches in the Seychelles very rarely feel packed, and everyone can maintain a sense of privacy. The same goes for the local restaurants, which offer plenty of space to relax with family. For entertainment, travelers can stroll along the sand or explore the coastline by swimming. Snorkeling is a popular activity here, allowing you to admire the shallow waters of Anse Volbert Beach up close. It is an original way to experience the scenery and get the most out of your trip.

Gorgeous colors

A famous beach in Praslin that managed to protect itself from overdevelopment despite its popularity.
The colors of the sand and the sea are incredible.

Good, but don't stop there

Beautiful beach, typical of tropical seaside resorts. Easy to access, shallow turquoise water, white sand, and plenty of restaurants and hotels to hang out and enjoy the setting.
But in my opinion, it is not the most beautiful beach in the Seychelles. Look around to see what else is out there!

Anse Volbert, the quintessential postcard view

Without a doubt the most beautiful beach on Praslin. More than just a beach, it is a soothing place, totally preserved from human impact and any unnecessary activity. The sand is truly white and the water is truly turquoise, a real postcard setting that is best experienced with your significant other.

Very fine sand, calm and shallow waters, restaurants and hotels not too far away, this beach is ideal for families with young children.

Gorgeous

Picture perfect beach, with white sand and shallow turquoise water. A few reefs for snorkeling to see the fish.

White sand beach

This white sand beach is secluded enough that you will feel relaxed there. Don't forget your sunscreen, though that goes for anywhere you are on the island!
